 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 13 Microwave-assisted partial nephrectomy in Progress [Abstract] partial nephrectomy is the treatment of primary malignant renal tumors of the standard surgical procedure to control bleeding is a key step in successful operation. This paper briefly reviews the microwave-assisted control. Hemorrhage of partial nephrectomy Progress . [Keywords] microwave: partial nephrectomy: Kidney cancer: bleeding Renal cell carcinoma (renal cell carcinoma, RCC) is a malignant tumor of the urinary system, one of the most common, accounting for 2.0% of adult tumors, accounting for all primary malignant renal tumors in 85%. The United States 1998 30 000 cases of RCC diagnosed new cases, most of the tumor diameter less than 3cm of small renal cell carcinoma, 12 000 people die of the disease [1-2]. nephron sparing of partial nephrectomy is the standard treatment for small renal cell carcinoma of the conventional surgical approach. Because the kidneys are so fragile and rich blood supply, partial nephrectomy in easy bleeding, control of bleeding is therefore a key step in successful operation. In recent years, as a new surgical assistive technology, microwave, partial nephrectomy in the control of intraoperative bleeding side become a hot research scholars. It is safe, effective, easy operation and good prospect for clinical application. 1 in the open partial nephrectomy of 1.1 in 1991, Muraki animal studies [3] first reported the application of unipolar electrodes implanted microwave assisted partial nephrectomy in animal studies. The experiment with 10 adult mongrel dogs, weight 19.9 +-1.8kg, microwave frequency 2450HHz, wavelength of 12cm. maximum output power of 150W, microwave needle electrode diameter of 0.6mm, the length of 3cm. specific experimental operation as follows: First, exposure of renal abdominal fully free to determine the scope and the removal of the puncture needle electrode angle, electrode piercing the renal parenchyma , the
